About Me

Copy and Share

I love art, art has always been in my life and I couldn't imagine not being able to do it. I have actually won some awards because of my art and been in gallery shows, but now I am currently studying architecture. I actually decided I wanted to be an architect when I was six years old, I know weird because I was very young to be think of that, but I have always been the type of person to plan ahead. I love my family they have always been their for me and I am happy that they have always supported my decisions no matter what. I really am blessed. I love to read and paint and run/walk when I'm tired haha. Last thing is that I love this gospel it has made me who I am today and for that reason I am always happy.

Why I am a Mormon

I was born in the church, both of my parents are converts and have always taught us of the gospel. I personally love the church, there is no other religion for me. Life has been pretty simple for me but I have had my challenges that have tested my faith and how strong I am but every time something like that happens I remember that my Heavenly Father is always with me and he is always going to help me stand up straight and strong when ever I feel like I will fall down.
I would like to share my testimony; I know that this is the true church of Jesus Christ and it’s the only true church on the earth today, I have been blessed to know that all that I have read from the book of Mormon and Bible is true and that there is no greater truth than those messages left for us in them. I know that by the power of prayer we are able to communicate with our Heavenly Father and know that he is always there for us. I know that Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God and I am grateful that he restored the gospel for these latter days. I have been blessed with a loving family that has been there for me everyday and I am glad to now that families can be together forever. I know that my Heavenly Father loves everyone of us on this earth and that he wants us all return to him one day. I know that Jesus Christ gave his life so that we could all have that opportunity and I am grateful for everything he has given me.
I am grateful to my Heavenly Father for the opportunity to go and serve in his work.

How I live my faith

I have worked with the helping hands organization and I love to help out when I can because when people smile and are happy I feel happy. I used to be a teacher in primary for the kids of ages 9-11, that was one of my favorite callings because they were so happy all the time and when it came time to share anything I would always have so many of them wanting to share, it was really something special to share that hour with them every Sunday. I also was in the National Honor Society which is a program at school where you get to do a lot of serves for the community and the school and it truly made the school a better place. Last thing is that when ever the church had a serves project/activity my family and I always try to help as much as we can, be it 4 hours or just 1 we always try to help.

Who is Jesus Christ? Watch this 60 second video on Christ and His relevance. Learn the names he goes by; The King of Kings, The Lord of Lords. Learn of the greatest gift we can receive, the sacrifice and atonement of his life so we can live again.

God makes it easy for us to follow Him by giving us commandments. Following the commandments can lead us to happiness. We certainly are not perfect, but God has given us a way to be forgiven of our sins through the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
